Caution: CLTs appear to be broken on Sequoia

[Joshua Root]

It's certainly possible that there are multiple slightly different 
versions of the CLTs floating around (perhaps due to leftover bits from 
beta versions?) I actually got the 15.x CLTs when I ran 'xcode-select 
--install' on Sequoia when I was setting up to build the MacPorts 
installer, and had to run Software Update to get 16.

Also note that only C++ compilation seems to be broken, so a lot of 
ports will build fine regardless.

It would be helpful if you could try the example that Clemens posted in 
the ticket, and post the results if they differ, along with your exact 
clang and CLT receipt versions. See 
<https://trac.macports.org/wiki/ProblemHotlist#reinstall-clt> for the 
command to get the latter.
